January…..the middle of a month of colder weather ( I hate to use the word “winter”) always brings with it time to reflect, review, and renew our ideas and direction. This was and still is a time when those working with the physical rhythms of nature fix their equipment, check their seeds and supplies, and make sure all is ready for the coming season. It’s also a great time for exercising and refining the “mental”, which is the consideration of our ideal, that statement or set of thoughts that we try to live our lives by. All of us have an “ideal”, which is the “seed” of our behavior, the direction by which we exhibit and live our physical lives. It’s important to us as people to be aware of our ideal, and to refine it as we ourselves change. We are the only creatures that God has given this ability to, and we develop and grow our awareness of our “ideal” daily thru our meditations and prayers. May we all take time to go inside, to listen to the “still small voice” that helps us to guide our physical lives, our growth toward being seeds, children, of the energy that is God.
